Yes. Teacher accounts, classes, setting work and results are free. Seats are only needed for Plus content.

Do my students need an email address?

They need a Brainlag account, which uses an email address. You never see it.

Which courses can I set?

Anything that is open on Brainlag: revision notes, flashcard decks, tool tasks and the Learn courses as they open. Plus lessons and topic tests need class seats.

Can I use it with a whole school?

Start with one class. For a department or a school, write to support@brainlag.space and we will talk about an invoice and a data processing agreement.

Free study tools for teachers and classrooms

How classes work

Set up a teacher account. We check it by hand, usually within two working days.
Create a class and print the join sheet. Students sign in, type the 8-character code and choose the name you will see.
Set work: a Learn unit or lesson, a topic test, a revision notes page, a flashcard deck or a task in one of the tools, with a due date.
See results by student and by assignment: done or not, scores, attempts and a red, amber or green for each spec point. Download a CSV for your markbook.

Built for students under 18

You see the name each student chooses and their work for your class. Never their email address, unless they choose to show it to you.
There is no messaging and no chat. Students never see each other.
Students agree to share their class work when they join and can leave a class at any time. When they leave, you stop seeing their work.
We keep only what the class needs, and every teacher action is logged.

Class seats

A seat gives one student everything in Brainlag Plus for a year, including the Plus lessons and topic tests in Learn: £3 per student, at least 10 students.

Coming soon. Buying seats online is not open yet.

Pilot classes

We are looking for a few teachers to try Brainlag with a class this year, with free seats for the pilot. Write to [email protected] with your school and subject.
